FAQs

Front-terminal designs simplify wiring, reducing install time and wiring errors. For best results, ensure alignment with panel cutouts, maintain proper clearance for heat dissipation, and torque terminals per the BB 3P 40 A specification. This also facilitates future upgrades or replacements without rewiring the full enclosure.
The device is rated for 40 A continuous current (I n) with three poles (3P). It offers high short-circuit protection up to 100 kA (I cs / I cu depends on voltage). This combination supports reliable feeder protection for motors and lighting in low-voltage distributions, while meeting IEC 60947-2 requirements.
Yes. The unit supports rated operational voltage of 690 V AC and 500 V DC, along with an insulation voltage of 1000 V. This makes it suitable for mixed electrical networks commonly found in process and manufacturing environments, enabling a single protective device across diverse panels.
The breaker complies with IEC 60947-2 and GB/T 14028.2, with CE declaration of conformity. It also carries RoHS and REACH declarations and is aligned with sustainability programs such as EPD for Tmax XT XT2 and WEEE. These certifications support regulatory compliance, environmental responsibility, and easier procurement audits.
Ekip Hi-Touch LSIG provides precise, solid-state release control, improving protection accuracy and reducing nuisance trips. This translates to lower unplanned downtime and slower degradation of connected equipment. When combined with front-terminal wiring and modular XT2 design, maintenance windows shrink and lifecycle costs decrease, delivering tangible ROI through improved uptime and simplified spare-part management.
